Default 2004 Discover SE7 for Sale

3" lift, 33" BFG Mud Terrains installed new August 2014, Terra Firma diff guards, Tom Woods serviceable drive shafts front & rear, Very nice custom front & rear bumpers and rock sliders from RTE fabrication (RoverTym) recently installed. New battery, new starter, & new brakes.

This has been my favorite and most reliable driver for the last 4 years. It does have 191,000 miles, but it's been well taken care of by 2 of the best local independent Land Rover service centers. Mike Holland at Holland's Garage in Guilford did an engine overhaul (re-ringed) at 160,000 miles. Josh Sanner at Atlantic Rover in Milford has done most of the other work. Both great shops.

The bad: windshield is cracked and has a couple stone bruises, typical body wear for age, mileage and moderate off-roading, rear sunroof is stuck closed, rear passenger hub leaks and driver's seat tilt is broken. Josh at Atlantic Rover says it's not a major fix, but we didn't have time to fit it in the last time I had my truck there for service. I believe that covers all of the negative points of the truck.

Asking $7,900. Craigslist ad can be seen at:

Low-mileage Discos in better condition sell for around $4500. Take $3K off of the asking price if you are looking for inquiries here. Best of luck with the sale!

chubbs 878. Sounds like a smart-*** comment which could have been kept to yourself. If I was motivated to sell it, it would be listed for less. Didn't realize I should have consulted you before I set a posting price.

I will show you a smart *** comment mr. Metallica. But first you need to come on up to 2015 as you are obviously still living in 2004 when that disco you are trying to sell was worth $8000 and Metallica was still cool.

Sounds like chubbs was politely telling you that you're asking price is too high, given that your audience is full of enthusiasts who know better.

Also, I agree on his valuation, your asking price is way high.

Mods aside, that truck is in need of repairs, a couple of which could potentially be very expensive (have you priced out a replacement hub lately?) for the next owner, never mind that you live deep in the rust belt, and there are zero photos of the chassis. Good luck with the sale, but in the future, you should really take your audience into account when you list for sale, and then get defensive when someone offers some constructive criticism.

Thank for having my back Racer. It never ceases to amaze me when these people with 1 or 2 posts come on here trying to take us for fools. Freaking 200 grand on the odometer and EVERYTHING that comes with it --- bunch of repairs and a beat up interior/ exterior, frozen sunroofs, cracked windshield, faulty HUB...like those are real cheap, and then have the narcissistic gall to request $8000 for the junk? Excuse me! We all have enough sense and intelligence to look for a 2008 LR3 or Range Rover in damn good condition if we want something worth $8K.
I wish some of these fools would search for just 10 minutes before embarrassing himself and getting butt-hurt when told that their ragged out junk ain't worth jack in our neck of the woods unless it's a $1000 parts-truck like this one.
Seventy-something-hundred $$. What a joke. And not even worth a pity chuckle
